Join us in welcoming Thomas Mendiola, as he begins his role as Construction Materials Testing Technician. We are excited to have him join the team.
We asked Thomas a couple of questions to get to know him better.
What led you to Encorus?
I heard from a friend that Encorus was hiring for their new Rochester office, and I thought it might be an interesting opportunity.
What are you most excited about as you start in your new position?
I’m most excited about the prospect of getting in on the start of expansion into the Rochester area.
When you were younger, what did you want to be when you grew up?
I wanted to be a weatherman. There wasn’t much weather variety to consider as a kid growing up in southern California, though.
Do you have any pets?
One, a tabby cat.
What is your favorite book or movie?
Master and Commander. It’s a shame that it’s overlooked due to coming out the same year as Return of the King in 2003. Haven’t gotten around to reading the book yet.
What was your favorite thing to do as a kid?
Playing Pokemon Blue and wandering around the neighborhood with my friends.
If you had to choose one food to take to a deserted island, what would it be?
Peanut butter. It’s calorie dense and hopefully won’t spoil too quickly.
